SCARBOROUGH, Maine – Scott Mulkern of Falmouth, Maine, finished 30th in the season-opening PASS North Series SouthernMaineMotors.com 150 at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway in Scarborough, Maine, on Saturday, May 5. Mulkern absorbed a hard it into the frontstretch wall just past the halfway mark of the event to end his day early. He qualified the Mulkern Racing No. 84 SouthernMaineMotors.com/Community Pharmacies Chevrolet in the 14th position and had climbed as high as sixth at the time of his accident.

“It just flipped around on me. I don't know. Something felt weird. I asked (Mulkern Racing crew chief Gary Crooks), 'Do I always have that much caster?' Something felt funky. I might just be getting old – I don't know.”

DID YOU HAVE ANY INDICATION SOMETHING WAS WRONG?

“No, and it wasn't too bad, actually. It was pretty good. But I got loose twice today in practice, and once I almost crashed and another time I just spun off the turn in the dirt.”
